Friday (late) Pointless Poll, Innapropriate Nostalgia Edition

[jeriendhal]

You're driving home from work and suddenly a rip in space-time opens up in front of you. To your surprise, you find yourself exactly 100 years in the past, April 3rd, 1909. What's going to happen now?

Start reading up on 1809, just to be on the safe side.

Join in the feminist movement. I mean, fuckit, 1909 and I'm female? I'm screwed!

Come up with a plan to survive WWI. Something better than Lazarus Long's plan.

2. Other valuable item (specify) My flashdrive. What, it's valuable even if there's nothing here that can read it.

3. Other (specify) Start plagerizing tv shows that haven't been written yet.

Definitely join the feminist movement. Meet Margaret Sanger and see what I can do to help her out.

I mean, I'm female, and I am not going to put up with the BS my grandmother dealt with.

And pants! By god, I want to be able to wear pants!

You sound like Amelia Peabody [g].

Not that I don't agree with you...

Yes! Pants! And wear my hair however I want, and not have to have a husband to do anything.

I would very quietly be brilliant at sensing trends in the stock market. Whilst living simply (though not spartan), I would use my increasing wealth to fund my many charitable interests.

Land Preservation in Eastern Suffolk
Scholarships for needy students.
Urban Revitalization through co-op gardens in vacant lots (helpful during the Depression and War Years.
Support of the Arts (Broadway, Baby!)
Institutional Improvements (orphanages, mental institutions, hospitals, etc)

Oooh, you could invest in Cocacola....

Prevention of forced sterilization of orphans? (Fits perfectly under your Institutional Improvements)
